Nope, when shows are coming up I start making sure it's all perfectly clean about 3-4 weeks prior then the quick clean the night before the show takes less time lols! 2 weekends to go!

Thats coming to the fast show, it's Nats (My GF's) Bros' - It got beaten up by the snow for been so low
He was hoping to get the new kit fitted and get it resprayed black before the show but a few problems with the suspension have halted those plans as the suspension needed fixing first
Basically it's a WIP car, the new kit is the smex, atm its abit sorry for itself.

#24: Re: Ste206 : First Pre-Show Clean. Author: Danw_VVT, Location: Herts/LondonPosted: Thu Mar 17, 2011 9:55 am ---- just use a APC like tesco daisy with warm water spray leave for 2 mins then use a soft brush.
WD40 is crap id use GT85 personally.

Nope, no WD40, hate that stuff! They are greased though, have a look at the closeup of the hinge, you can just see the grease in the middle of it just enough to keep it going but not enough for dirt to stick to
I used some QD - I clean them quite often so they dont need much attention, the dirt liturally wipes off for me now, the first time I did it it took agesssssssssssssssssssss!
